In this 6F claimer for 3YO's or 4+up who've never won three(clm.12,500b), I'm taking a flyer with fellow Fitchburgian Charlie A. on #3, DIFFRACTION... Claimed for 40 LARGE at Guflstream on April Fool's Day (Uh,OH!) from 20% trainer Steve Margolis,3YO DIFFRACTION has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING:confused: in 3 starts at Boston.
Methinks Charlie claimed him because he trained the dam, KAYLA'S A GEM, & may have trained the SIRE, HALO'S IMAGE at one point!
Pure Price Play in this spot, counting on YASOU MAGIC to POP :faint: @ 15/1 Here!
